Why our templates?

They make Showit website design easy.

Pick a theme, customize it, and hit publish. Yeah, really—it’s that simple. Gone are the days of sweating over each and every change, waiting on designers, or choosing a template that hundreds of other people have. You didn’t start your own business so you could spend 31 hours googling ‘how to change the fonts on my site.’ Spend less time with code and more time getting after the things you love. We’ll see you on the beach.

Showit Website Launch Checklist

Launching a new website is a lot of work. Stay organized and make the most out of your launch using this checklist.

FIVE REASONS WHY WE

love

SHowit

01Creative Control

Your website is a blank canvas, and you’re able to add elements and features nearly anywhere you want them to appear. And you can add videos or other dynamic elements to your website, too. The back-end of Showit has a similar feel to the Adobe Suite, so it’s easy to get the hang of it (especially if you’re a photographer!).

01/05

02Mobile Friendly + Optimization Options

It’s more important than ever that websites are mobile friendly and Showit enables you to create an awesome looking mobile website. And the best part? The mobile view is built into the designer. You can switch between mobile and desktop views to see what each looks like as you design.

The Showit subscription also provides SEO features so it can be optimized for search engines. Add a custom SEO title or meta-description to each of the pages on your website. The new Showit platform is html5, which is an upgrade from old Showit Flash sites.

02/05

03Flexibility

The Showit website builder makes it easy to change colors, fonts, images, sizes, and placement of objects. Even if someone else designed your site, you probably won’t need their help to make most updates.

03/05

04WordPress Integration

WordPress is one of the most powerful content managements systems out there, and it’s now integrated with Showit websites. Designs flow seamlessly between your Showit pages and WordPress blog—plus, everything can live on the same URL. There’s no need for ProPhoto or any additional software to make it work.

04/05

05Created for Creatives

Showit can be used by anyone who needs a website, but it was specifically created with creative professionals in mind. The backend of Showit looks like the Adobe Suite, and many of the features were added based on feedback from their creative community. The Showit team listens carefully to the feedback its community provides, and it seems like they roll out with features every month. It’s a great platform now—and it’s only going to get better.

05/05

Drag. And mic drop.

A PEEK INSIDE THE COURSE:

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

“ever since relaunching my website, I’ve had a HUGE SURGE in clients”

“Since I’ve launched my website I have gotten some incredible feedback. It’s way easier to navigate now, which has in turn brought a lot more clients my way. And that’s exciting!! …ever since relaunching my website, I’ve had a huge surge in clients. Woo!”

ABBEIGH BLAKE PHOTOGRAPHY

“It was like seeing a little piece of myself that I’ve been missing and searching for, for quite some time.”

The intense process, the questions, they forced me to dig deep and truly look at myself and my business. Every time I would open up this site, or see the brand board you created, I cried.
